Beyond antigens and adjuvants: formulating future vaccines.
The need to optimize vaccine potency while minimizing toxicity in healthy recipients has motivated studies of the formulation of vaccines to control how, when, and where antigens and adjuvants encounter immune cells and other cells/tissues following administration. An effective subunit vaccine must traffic to lymph nodes (LNs), activate both the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system, an...
متن کاملNovel Adjuvants for Vaccines
The review covers basic recent discoveries on the mechanism of action of adjuvants, which have been developed in the last decade. In particular, it focuses on the activation of TOLL like receptors and subsequent release of pro-inflammatory lymphokines (innate immunity), which, in turn, are thought to activate antigen specific responses (adaptive immunity). Given the number of novel adjuvants av...
متن کاملLiposome-based Co-delivery of Adjuvants and Peptide Antigens: Application to the Development of Synthetic Vaccines
Introduction: Subunit vaccines represent an important aspect of modern vaccination. In this respect, the possibility to construct peptide-based vaccines is particularly appealing and peptides that e.g. mimic epitopes of pathogens, can be designed to induce well-defined monofunctional immune responses. Multi-epitopic constructs that contain epitopes from the same and/or different pathogen(s) can...
متن کاملLiposome-Based Adjuvants for Subunit Vaccines: Formulation Strategies for Subunit Antigens and Immunostimulators
The development of subunit vaccines has become very attractive in recent years due to their superior safety profiles as compared to traditional vaccines based on live attenuated or whole inactivated pathogens, and there is an unmet medical need for improved vaccines and vaccines against pathogens for which no effective vaccines exist. The subunit vaccine technology exploits pathogen subunits as...
متن کاملAdjuvants, Preservatives and Tissue Fixatives in Vaccines
ADJUVANTS, PRESERVATIVES AND TISSUE FIXATIVES IN VACCINES V contain a number of substances which can be divided into the following groups: 1. Micro-organisms, either bacteria or viruses, thought to be causing certain infectious diseases and which the vaccine is supposed to prevent. These are whole-cell proteins or just the broken-cell protein envelopes, and are called antigens. 2. Chemical subs...
